I learned how to respect and be friends with classmates across many races and religions.  A lifelong learning experience I use every day.

My Shaker experience provided a high quality education. The experience of learning and interacting with a diverse student population made it easier in later years to successfully understand, communicate with, and manage a diverse group of employees.

Education, in its highest form, is not simply the transmission of facts but the cultivation of the whole person. In the community, classrooms, and neighborhoods of Shaker, I found not only academic rigor but a nurturing environment that was growing to understand diversity, champion advocacy, and foster a sense of belonging from the earliest years through graduation.

I found out quickly how good the education was in my first quarter at college. Feeling that I was ready made it easier to acclimate to the higher education experience.
